Strawberry Culture.
SANTA Cruz Courier-Item. ]


+. l.. Littlefield cultivates two out
of the five acres of the Littlefield home
stead, situated on the corner of Cali
fornia street and Case lane, in this
city, in strawberries. At the time of
our visit his berry patch was a marvel
of luxuriant vines, loaded with enor-
NOUS berries. Mr.. Littlefields com
paratively small patch of berries has
been yielding a handsome return for
the outlay.
Although strawberries are sold from
this patch every month in the year,
from the middle of April until fall the
plants produce wonderfully. They are
irrigated weekly, and the fruit picked
ON Mondays, Wednesdays and Satur-
days of each week. Since the straw
berry season fairly commenced this
little patch has produced an average OF
700 one-pound baskets per week and
they have found ready market in this
citv, bringing an income of from $50
to $40 per week. There is also on the
place patch of three-quarters of an
acre of raspberries and blackberries.
These are also producing finely since
the season has opened for this fruit.
Mr.. Littlefield has marketed an aver
age of 1900 small baskets of raspber-
ries, weighing about one-half pound
each, per week. These have been
sold to the dealers in this city.
Mr.. Littlefeld has adopted the plan
of planting out new strawberry vines
every month in the year, and will
continue until the whole tract is under
cultivation in this prolific fruit, be-
lieying that he can realize more profit
per acre in this crop than any other
he can grow.
As to Cutting the market, San
Francisco stands ready to take any
surplus, and the market for such
splendid berries put up in glass jars is
world wide.
The Littlefield place is but an in
stance of what can be done on our sub
urban homesteads. The ideal, hand
some cottage, with lawns ever green.
a profusion of flowers ever blooming,
filling the air the year round with
their fragrance, ga few acres, only a
few" and well-tilled.
1--WE enjoy country life with the ad-
vantage of city residence" said Mr..
Littlefield, "and there is room for
hundreds more in the neighborhood OF
our city,"
